1. Awful
Edited on Thu Jan-20-05 02:54 PM by Liberalynn
but I'm trying not to let the bastard get me down for the count.

I'm going newsless today except for the weather, I even changed my homepage so I wouldn't see headlines. I've forbidden everyone I know from mentioning the event today, and trying to concentrate on only things that are positive.

2. like a bunch of people dying in a stupid war
based on lies, while he is having a million balls, laughing his ass off. That is what today is like for me.

3. Funny you should mention this!
Because today, I've actually had a root canal, a Pap smear, AND diarrhea! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Okay, not really. I'm just pretending that the whole thing isn't happening. There's nothing I can do about it anyway, so I'm completely ignoring it.

4. It's more like having my prostate checked
Getting pulled over by a state trooper and having a bad LSD trip to me.

11. That's the only thing bad about Ohio
We have Republican leadership at the state level. Ohio is pretty close liberal to conservative. But for some reason Democrats just don't turn out for the state level elections. It's been that way for at least 8 years I think.

5. None of those things particularly bothers me.
Okay, well, diarrhea would.

But a root canal and Pap smear are nothing to me, especially as compared to the pain that is Junior's Coronation Adventure.

(I've had two root canals, and they are a walk in the PARK compared to the pain that prompted me to run to the dentist to begin with.)

14. Root canals aren't that bad before you get a crown on as long
as you don't have an abscessed tooth. I, however, kept letting it go because of fear of the dentist.

Let me just say, I gave birth to a big, healthy baby boy, and only the baby cried.

nuff said.

8. Forgot to add my Comparison
It is like being back in Catholic School again, and believe me that was like a living hell.

10. You pretty much got the feelings down pat.
Those are three of the most horrible things a person has to go through and this second "coronation" fits right up there with those horrible events and feelings.

I'd like to add that the next four years are going to be like fighting bulimia.
